Epic Trailer For Epic New Animated Feature. We Forget What It’s Called.

Here’s the first full length trailer for EPIC, the new animated feature from the makers of ICE AGE and RIO.

We previously had a spectacular looking teaser which put the humour on the back burner and focused on the stunning visuals aided by some glorious music. This new trailer gives us more story and dialogue and boy oh boy, this actually looks rather special. It does have a whiff of FERNGULLY (1992) with a hint of HONEY I SHRUNK THE KIDS (1989), but hey. Those two flicks are kids’ classics, thus EPIC emits a pleasant enough aroma, as far as THN are concerned.

The story is that of a young girl who is magically shrunk and transported to a forest where she meets some tiny soldiers. They must do battle with some other tiny… well, we’re not sure what they are but they want to destroy the forest. Her dad’s a scientist, there’s a giant pug and Beyonce is in it. Sold? We are too.

John is a gentleman, a scholar, he’s an acrobat. He is one half of the comedy duo Good Ol’ JR, and considers himself a comedy writer/performer. This view has been questioned by others. He graduated with First Class Honours in Media Arts/Film & TV, a fact he will remain smug about long after everyone has stopped caring. He enjoys movies, theatre, live comedy and writing with the JR member and hetero life partner Ryan. Some of their sketches can be seen on YouTube and YOU can take their total hits to way over 17!
